any suggestions??
Answer:
You could try deleting the printer from the Printer and faxes folder, rebooting the domestic device then going fund into the Printer and faxes folder. After you have done this select File, the Server Properties and delete ALL the relevant printers. After this is done plug the printer wager on into the computer and try reinstalling the drivers.
Have your friend run the printers trouble shooting wizard.
is the printer a copier/ scanner also. if so, take the printed theory test page and scan it on the scanner. then the printer should work.
does the printer own any backlogged awaiting documents to be printed? if that's the case, delete those waiting to be printed. unplug the printer from the notebook and wait an hour, next plug back within. hope this helps.
This is a *crazy* possibility which abundant perhaps better erudite techies will scoff at but... did you try (1) power down and reboot and/or (2) different usb port: reason I ask is, I have a similar problem. I had a *powered* usb hub plugged into my computer. I placed, *apparently*, an incorrect device on it, cause my computer some grief (the device was a Maxstor external storage device for backup, and it drew power from the hub). When I placed the device on the hub it took all other devices on the hub offline. I have to remove it, plug the hub into a different usb port, and reboot to get the computer comfortable again...
Go to:
START->Control Pane->Printer and Faxes
Right mouse click over name of your printer and select: Set as defaulting printer
Hope will solve the issue
it's not the printer. it's your computer. You did say you have a Dell? I have have a Dell and if I had to order it, it would get a D-
It screwed up so oodles of my programs, i donated it to a school. Maybe the are brainy adequate to figure it out. I own an all-in-one HP and I haven't had any trouble out of it. Lexmark is a impossible printer too. It prints alright, but the ink cost up the wahoo.
